He said due to the rain delay, a group of his friends and fellow Astros fans had to sell their tickets and fly back to Houston, leaving Magee surrounded by a sea of Yankees fans.



"It got a little rowdy," said Magee.



After Zach Greinke walked in a run, Magee's face told the entire story and his face immediately went viral.

Although, he didn't know that until the game ended when he turned his phone back on.

"It got a little out of hand," said Magee.

He said as he was walking out of the bathroom during the seventh inning, an Astros fan asked to take a picture with him after seeing Magee's face all over social media.

"(He said) 'You're just a very enthusiastic fan and I just want a picture with you,'" said Magee.

He said Astros pitcher Lance McCullers reached out to him on Twitter and said, "If we make the World Series, just pick a game and I'll get you a ticket."

In the end, the excited fan says he's simply hoping the Astros wrap up the series in New York Friday night.
